I'm not volunteering (don't have my IR anyways), but you may want to wait
for another weekend. Here in SF we are bracing for a fairly decent winter
storm (nothing big deal, but it will be wet and the freezing levels are
gonna be low - I wouldn't want to imagine what the levels will be like in
Oregon ((shiver))).

20hrs of Actual IR? or 20hrs of actual flying time..

You know how hard it is to get "actual IR" in the desert southwest without
getting into the freezing levels..

Cost is $xxx (negotiable/day), plus actual cost of return airfare and other
expenses, can add up if forced overnight 1/2 way enroute by approaching
winter storm.

Which seems pretty reasonable for a commercial pilot. $150! Given that it
will probably take about 10 hours round trip (home to home), that's about
$15/hr. No wonder it's so hard to make a living in aviation...

I got my IR. But I wouldn't try myself. I'm hoping I can fly with
someone with experience in real world weather. You're right, I was
told, if there's the word "icing" you stay on the ground. So it looks
like this weekend might not happen.

I think the price is not too far off. If I was capable and without an
airplane, I might even fly for free. It's fun isn't it. In any case, I
have already found someone. Thanks a lot for people who responded
either here or PM. Ya, it does not look like this weekend is feasible
though. I don't think any reasonable people want to try hard IFR in an
unfamiliar airplane. By the way, it's a 182P.

I was thinking the same thing, but he said 20 hours of actual in the past
year. I would think its pretty hard to get 20 hours of actualy in a year since
the only time you can log actual is when you are actually in actual

btw if you dont have your own plane and need to stay current your more then
welcome to fly with me, my plane is in Hortons right now getting new avionics,

Hey Jeff, any idea why I'd get redirected to a porn site when clicking on
either the "performance specs" or "My Plane Pictures" links on that page???
